About Deadly Motive A Gritty Crime Thriller

She killed a priest. Some say she killed her own mother. Now Belle's back for the ones she really hates! When DCI Reece arrives at the bloody crime scene of a murdered woman, he has every right to believe the case is his to investigate. He's head of the regional murder squad, after all. He's also recently widowed, and in the eyes of his superiors, a volatile risk-taker. The new chief superintendent puts Reece on leave, forcing him to watch things unfold from the sidelines. It's not in Reece's DNA to roll over and go quietly. Besides, the victim just happens to be the sister of his nemesis, Billy Creed. As the body count rises, DS Elan Jenkins quickly realises her boss's replacement is way out of his depth and does some investigating of her own. But in so doing, Jenkins unknowingly puts herself and those around her in mortal danger. All is not as it appears to be at the Cardiff Bay police station. Someone is playing both sides. With the stakes raised and a killer who is only just getting started, this could be the murder squad's toughest case to date. DEADLY MOTIVE is a character-driven police thriller set against the spectacular backdrop of Cardiff and the Brecon Beacons National Park. It will appeal to readers of JD Kirk, Jason Dalgliesh, and Rachel McLean. Can also be read as a standalone. ★★★★★ "Comes highly recommended" - Trevor Wood - Award winning author of Man On The Street.
